No you won't, but Monoprice has great prices on speaker cables. Bluejeans has some great cable as well......

Since I'm planning ahead..what's more important, a center channel or a sub?

I'm mainly watching movies with this system.

It could go either way, but with those bookshelves (you ordered the Aperion 4Bs, correct?), I would get a subwoofer first. Those speakers don't go very low at all (120Hz at -3dB, 100Hz at -6dB).

That's what I thought. I was looking at best buy online and they have some subs that aren't very pricey at all. To match the 4Bs, are there any subs in the $150 range that would suffice? The polk psw10 looks pretty good and has good reviews on cnet.

I have no personal experience with them, but from what I've read around here, the Dayton subs (available at partsexpress.com) are hard to beat in that price range.

If anything I'll try the Polk from BB and if i don't like it I'll return it. I was also thinking the lows won't suffice with the 4Bs, considering I do mainly watch action movies :D

Sorry, I didn't see the sentence about the Polks when I wrote my response. I would second your thoughts on trying out the Polk first to see if you like it. I have a friend who owns the (I believe) older version of that sub - and it sounds fine to me. IMO, it's nice to be able to get some stuff locally and try it out.

Awesome...I get all the equipment in the mail this Friday, so I'll pick up the sub on Friday as well...get a better experience when I first try it out.

Update?

I like the idea that Aperion has the 30 day trial. My bedroom is small, it's about 15'x15' so I know I don't need HUGE power..

I'm going to try the Aperion 4B, see how I like it and take it from there.

I figure, i'll add a center and a sub in a few months or so, THEN, when I can, replace the 4B with something else and move the 4B as rear speakers..
You should let us know what you think! I'm considering the 4B's as well as the 4T's and would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!
